FIGURE 7-193 LAN4 Feature with iMG/RG 624/634 Family Devices
Other than their loss of lan4 port for subscriber services and appropriate changes in the GUIs, the management capabilities
are the same. Moreover, this feature works as follows:
• The administrator can data fill profiles so that the NMS automatically determines during installation whether the iMG is
managed over the LAN4 or WAN port and correctly configures the device.
• When the LAN4 port is used for the uplink, the ADSL WAN port is disabled. If the user wishes to restore the ADSL
WAN port for management, the iMG must be rebooted from the factory configuration.
When an iMG/RG 624/634 is provisioned with LAN4 as the network port, the GUIs on the NMS identify the use of the
LAN4 port. This is explained in the following subsections.
7.12.2 Profiles
The iMG/RG Create General Profile wizard has been modified to allow for the selection of “Management” service on the
port in addition to the previously supported choices Internet, TLS, Video and Voice. This is a placeholder to ensure the port
is not selected for any other service.
